IMPROVED MEDICAL COMPOUND.

The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, S. INGRAHAM, M. D., of Wooster, in the county of Wayne, and State of Ohio, have invented a new and improved Medical Compound and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereo which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same.

' This invention relates to a new and valuable remedy for various diseases, composed of various substances, each possessing healing virtues in itself, but being combined, as hereinafter described, form a compound, which I designate The Magic Macedonian Oil.

This remedy is more especially intended for rheumatism and inflammatory diseases, but is not confined thereto.

' Being a medical practitioner myself, and well acquainted, not only with the diseases to which the human body is subject, but with the various agents used by the faculty in combatting them, I have, as the result of my knowledge and experience, formed the healing-compound hereinafter described.

In carrying out my invention and discovery, I combine the following ingredients, in about the proportions named, viz:

Linseed-oil, thirty-six gallons.-

Olive-oil, ten gallons.

God-liver oil, two gallons.

Alcohol, one gallon.

*Sassafras-oil, four pounds.

Pipsissewa-oil, two pounds.

'Gal'nphor-gum, eight pounds.

Cassia-oil, two pounds.

Gajeput-oil, five pounds,

Horse-mint oil, one pound.

These ingredients are thoroughly mixed in a Z1110 vessel, and the compound is then filtered through charcoal, after which'it is ready for use.

Having thus described my invention,

I claim as new, and desire to'secure by Letters Patent The medical compound, composed of the ingredients in about the proportions named, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.

The above specification of my invention signed by me, this-7th day of December, 1868.
